I am Chinese.
And I have issues with Japan.
This is not helped by the fact that my dad is a massive Japan hater and raised me with stories about their war crimes, stealing their culture from China and turning it into an abomination, killing whales, and making fun of things like eating puffer fish even when they know that it carries a high risk of death even with trained cooks.
This is not helped by the fact that Japan's attempts to apologize for its war crimes against China were either not accepted or never happened. I also heard that it denies that the Nanking Massacre ever happened.
The glorification of Japanese culture, particularly anime and manga, is going too far in my opinon. Especially when combined with my friends in the anime club casually throwing out comments that amount to "China is lame and Japanese are the master race."
I admit that I watch some anime and the art style isn't so bad. But it was treated as something unholy when I requested not having lunch at a sushi bar because I don't like sushi, and I almost punched someone in the face today because they said China stole their entire culture from Japan because that's not true at all.
Today, I sat down with a friend and tried to explain this to him. He said, "You're just jealous." Once again, I almost punched him.
Or maybe it's just my luck I run into too many weeaboos.
TL;DR: I am sick of weeaboos that think China sucks and blatantly ignore Japan's problems.
TL;DR v.2: YES, I MAD.

I think chinese martial arts and wuxia movies are cool.
It really kind of just stops there for me.
That said, I like anime and manga, and some other things about Japanese culture. But I'm quick to point out that Japan has some SERIOUS issues.
I have had some issues with some people looking at my liking east Asian pop music (in which Japan is pretty prominently represented) and videogames (which were, like it or not, dominated by Japanese countries for years) and animé (which...is still pretty much exclusively Japanese in origin) and thinking that I'm a weeaboo. Well, they haven't yet heard my noting that if Germans can get over the Nazis and if Cambodians can teach their schoolchildren that Pol Pot was bad, then the Japanese certainly ought to admit that they did really nasty shit in Nanking and elsewhere in the Sino-Japanese war.
Also, pronouncing Japanese words (written in Romanji) with Spanish pronunciation is fun and great for trolling weeaboos.
Also, I havent watched it in a while because Buffy.
This. And I legitimately have a famous U.S. show I really, really like: Law & Order and its subseries.
Fixed.
I DIDN'T THINK SO
